Late winter night, when the sky is full of stars and the air is cold, the children of the Sun come out for a walk. This is how some of the people of the Arctic call the northern lights.

The Nomads found various explanations of this natural phenomenon of the Subpolar region. Some believed that this glow in the sky is the call of ancestors. According to their observations, some tribesmen seeing these dancing flashing colors in the sky begin to talk with non-existing people or even go to tundra not even realizing that.

Some believed that these are gods illuminated the lights searching for the disappeared hunters. Others also claimed that these are higher beings but they just play a game similar to our football but with a skull of a walrus instead of the ball.

There were also believers in misfortune of these green lights as well as the opposite one stating that seeing playing children of the sun is to get very lucky.

People living today know about the origin of this amazing natural phenomenon. It's just a solar wind in the upper part of the atmosphere. However, even being explained the phenomenon has not ceased to be less poetic, fascinating and unpredictable.

There are places in Yamal over the Polar Urals, in tundra, over the Ob where it is highly possible to observe the game of children of the Sun. Usually it lasts from the end of August until the end of April when nights become dark. The shining light can be brighter or duller.

Having professional technical equipment, it can be photographed. Skillful videographers are able to film the night sky of the Subpolar. But no single photograph will give you the same amazing feelings you have while looking at these silently rolling greenish flashes across the sky. Everyone who gets the chance to see this majestic natural light performance carries out a strong belief: seeing the northern lights is definitely going to bring you happiness.

Yamal is long and narrow peninsula compared often with Nenets knife. The gulf of the Ob reminds you a boot. There is a joke that Italy was cut out of here and moved to the warm Mediterranean Sea. On the toe of this very "boot", near the place where the "blade" changes into the handle, stands the ancient Salekhard.

Here, on the high bank of the Poluj, people lived a few thousand years ago. The town where we live in today was built already four centuries back.

Salekhard became the capital of the richest gas region and was fully developed and renovated not leaving much of ancient times in a very short time. But it still remains small, cozy and comfortable for life. You can walk through the center within one hour. To the most remote city area you need only fifteen minutes. Can the inhabitants of big cities dream about it?

Those who come to Salekhard for the first time are surprised to see such a modern city so far in the North. Indeed, Multistoried houses, built recently, are impressive. They look new and even a little unreal. Especially the summer night, when the bright sun is shining.

But, unlike other cities that survived the explosive wave of growth, our is the mostly developed for life. You won’t find any more temporary residents who came to the North just to make money and quickly leave.

People are settled down here, they live in families, with comfort and carefully pass photographs and family traditions from one generation to another. And they really love their city - the only city in the world on the Arctic Circle.
